757 range..

[f-16]

Is there a version of the 757 that can fly from PHNL to Tokyo?

just give it unlimited fuel!

if your not sure about the range, just look at the documentation that came with the plane (presumably its a download)or open the kneeboard for more details.

Far as I know no version of the 757 can afford a no stop transpacific travel.

Even from PHNL a 757 tasked with a flight to Tokyo should stop to refuel at least once.

Hello,
get the flight manual from here and see what the range is:

As far as I am aware, the Boeing 7E7-800 Dreamliner, set to replace the boeing 757's and 767's in 2007/8 will swallow that journey up with no problems! Early performance data claims it to have a range of 8500nm, the distance from tokyo to hawaii is 3340nm according to the GPS. Having said that, my project opensky 757-200 claims to have a max range of 3900nm..... I suppose though, the 3340nm is as the bird flies which might not be the same as the jet.

Hello John,

Occasionally someone makes my efforts feel worthwhile,
especially when thanked.

I suggest you consider putting a link to that site as many people must have some use for all the data there :-)
